Check Out These Nutritionist-Approved Ways to Reduce Bloating

Here's a fact about bloating: “It’s inevitable,” says Jenaica Roman, a registered nutritionist-dietitian and an executive assistant at Ride Revolution.

“Bloating sensation with or without visible distension is one of the most common frustrations of women. Unfortunately, healthy, high-fiber foods are often the worst offenders.”

2. Reduce your use of dairy products.
